Composition containing a semi-crystalline polymer and a volatile oil

ABSTRACT

The invention relates to a makeup composition comprising a) at least one liquid fatty phase structured with at least one semi-crystalline polymer having an organic structure, whose melting temperature is greater than or equal to 30° C., b) a colorant and c) a volatile oil, the liquid fatty phase, colorant, volatile oil and polymer forming a physiologically acceptable medium. 
     This composition is in the form in particular of a stick which on keratin materials, particularly the lips, lays down a glossy film which does not undergo transfer to objects with which the keratin materials come into contact.

This application is a national stage application of International Application No. PCT/FRO2/03801, filed Nov. 6, 2002, which claims priority to French Application Nos. FR 02/00885 and FR 02/02358, filed on Jan. 24, 2002, and Feb. 25, 2002, respectively.

The present invention relates to a composition, particularly a cosmetic composition, comprising at least one semi-crystalline polymer and a volatile oil, which is in the form in particular of a stick and whose application leads to a glossy and comfortable coating which does not undergo transfer.

Cosmetic compositions whose fatty phase is gelled using semi-crystalline polymers have been described in the as yet unpublished application FR 0106047. However, these compositions for application to the lips, when applied to the skin, present the drawback of undergoing transfer, in other words of at least partly depositing—leaving a mark—on certain substrates with which they may be brought into contact, and in particular a glass, an item of clothing, or the skin. The consequence is mediocre persistence of the film on the lips and hence the necessity to repeat application of the lipstick composition at regular intervals.

At the same time, users of non-transfer lipsticks often complain of the lack of comfort and gloss of these types of formulas—formulas which, otherwise, exhibit very good staying power.

Improving the performance of non-transfer lipsticks is a problem that a number of cosmeticians have attempted to solve. Reference may be made accordingly to Shiseido (JP-A-61-65809), Procter & Gamble (WO-A-96/40004) or Revlon (U.S. Pat. No. 5,837,223).

In application FR-A-2 804 018, L'Oreal described the combination of volatile solvent with heteroatom polymers of the polyamide type. These compositions, however, which lead to lipsticks whose coating does not undergo transfer and is glossy, have the drawback of presenting a stickiness which can be a critical flaw and adjudged uncomfortable.

An aim of the present invention is to overcome these drawbacks and the invention proposes a composition which allows a film to be obtained that has very good staying power, does not undergo transfer, and whose gloss is enhanced relative to the non-transfer compositions of the prior art.

Surprisingly the applicant has found that the addition of a volatile oil to a composition comprising a semi-crystalline polymer allows a non-transfer composition to be obtained whose gloss is enhanced.

The invention applies in particular to lip makeup products but also to eye makeup products, such as eyeliners, in particular in pencil form, and mascaras, in particular in block form, or skin makeup products, such as foundations.

More specifically the invention provides a makeup composition comprising a) at least one liquid fatty phase structured with at least one semi-crystalline polymer having an organic structure and a melting temperature of greater than or equal to 30° C., b) a colorant and c) a volatile oil, the liquid fatty phase, colorant, volatile oil and polymer forming a physiologically acceptable medium.

The melting temperature of the semi-crystalline polymer is preferably less than 150° C.

The composition of the invention may be in the form of a paste, a solid or a cream. It may be an oil-in-water emulsion or a water-in-oil emulsion, or a solid or soft anhydrous gel. It is preferably in anhydrous form, and more especially in the form of an anhydrous gel, especially cast as a stick or as a dish.

For the purposes of the invention, the term “semi-crystalline polymer” means polymers comprising a crystallizable portion and an amorphous portion in the skeleton and having a first-order reversible change of phase temperature, in particular of melting (solid-liquid transition). The crystallizable portion is either a side chain (or pendent chain) or a block in the skeleton.

For the purposes of the present invention, the term “polymers” means compounds containing at least 2 repeating units, preferably at least 3 repeating units and more especially at least 10 repeating units.

When the crystallizable portion is a block of the polymer skeleton, this crystallizable block has a different chemical nature to that of the amorphous blocks; in this case, the semi-crystalline polymer is a block copolymer, for example of the diblock, triblock or multiblock type. When the crystallizable portion is a chain that is pendent on the skeleton, the semi-crystalline polymer may be a homopolymer or a copolymer.

The terms “organic compound” and “having an organic structure” mean compounds containing carbon atoms and hydrogen atoms, and possibly heteroatoms such as S, O, N or P, alone or in combination.

Semi-Crystalline Polymers

The semi-crystalline polymer(s) of the composition of the invention advantageously comprise a weight-average molecular mass Mw ranging from 5,000 to 1,000,000, preferably from 10,000 to 800,000 and preferentially from 15,000 to 500,000.

The semi-crystalline polymer(s) according to the invention serving as structuring agent are solids at ambient temperature (25° C.) and atmospheric pressure (760 mmHg), with a melting temperature of greater than or equal to 30° C. The melting point values correspond to the melting point measured using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), such as the calorimeter sold under the name DSC 30 by the company Mettler, with a temperature rise of 5 or 10° C. per minute (the melting point under consideration is the point corresponding to the temperature of the most endothermic peak of the thermogram).

The semi-crystalline polymer(s) according to the invention preferably have a melting temperature greater than the temperature of the keratinous support intended for receiving the said composition, in particular the skin or the lips.

The semi-crystalline polymer(s) according to the invention are capable, alone or as a mixture, of structuring the composition without the addition of a particular surfactant or of filler or of wax.

According to the invention, the semi-crystalline polymers are advantageously soluble in the fatty phase, especially to at least 1% by weight, at a temperature greater than their melting temperature. Besides the crystallizable chains or blocks, the blocks of the polymers are amorphous.

For the purposes of the invention, the expression “crystallizable chain or block” means a chain or block which, if it were alone, would change from the amorphous state to the crystalline state reversibly, depending on whether one is above or below the melting temperature. For the purposes of the invention, a “chain” is a group of atoms, pendent or lateral relative to the polymer skeleton. A “block” is a group of atoms belonging to the skeleton, this group constituting one of the repeating units of the polymer.

Preferably, the polymer skeleton of the semi-crystalline polymers is soluble in the liquid fatty phase.

Preferably, the crystallizable blocks or chains of the semi-crystalline polymers represent at least 30% of the total weight of each polymer and better still at least 40%. The semi-crystalline polymers containing crystallizable side chains are homopolymers or copolymers. The semi-crystalline polymers of the invention containing crystallizable blocks are block or multiblock copolymers. They may be obtained by polymerizing a monomer containing reactive (or ethylenic) double bonds or by polycondensation. When the polymers of the invention are polymers containing crystallizable side chains, these side chains are advantageously in random or statistical form.

Preferably, the semi-crystalline polymers of the invention are of synthetic origin. Moreover, they do not comprise a polysaccharide skeleton.

The semi-crystalline polymers useful in the invention are in particular:

-   -   block copolymers of polyolefins of controlled crystallization,         whose monomers are described in EP-A-0 951 897,     -   polycondensates, especially of aliphatic or aromatic polyester         type or of aliphatic/aromatic polyester type,     -   homopolymers or copolymers bearing at least one crystallizable         side chain and homopolymers or copolymers bearing in the         skeleton at least one crystallizable block, such as those         described in document U.S. Pat. No. 5,156,911,     -   homopolymers or copolymers bearing at least one crystallizable         side chain, in particular bearing fluoro group(s), as described         in document WO-A-01/19333,     -   and mixtures thereof. In these last two cases, the         crystallizable side chain(s) or block(s) are hydrophobic.         A) Semi-Crystalline Polymers Containing Crystallizable Side         Chains

Mention may be made in particular of those defined in documents U.S. Pat. No. 5,156,911 and WO-A-01/19333.

-   -   They are homopolymers or copolymers comprising from 50% to 100%         by weight of units resulting from the polymerization of one or         more monomers bearing a crystallizable hydrophobic side chain.     -   These homopolymers or copolymers are of any nature, provided         that they meet the conditions mentioned hereinbelow with, in         particular, the characteristic of being soluble or dispersible         in the liquid fatty phase, by heating above their melting         temperature mp. They can result:     -   from the polymerization, especially the free-radical         polymerization, of one or more monomers containing reactive or         ethylenic double bond(s) with respect to a polymerization,         namely a vinyl, (meth)acrylic or allylic group,     -   from the polycondensation of one or more monomers bearing         co-reactive groups (carboxylic acid, sulphonic acid, alcohol,         amine or isocyanate), such as, for example, polyesters,         polyurethanes, polyethers, polyureas or polyamides.

a) In general, the crystallizable units (chains or blocks) of semi-crystalline polymers according to the invention are derived from monomer(s) containing crystallizable block(s) or chain(s), used for manufacturing semi-crystalline polymers. These polymers are selected especially from homopolymers and copolymers resulting from the polymerization of at least one monomer containing crystallizable chain(s) that may be represented by formula X:

-   -   with M representing an atom of the polymer skeleton,     -   S representing a spacer and     -   C representing a crystallizable group.

The crystallizable chains “—S—C” may be aliphatic or aromatic, and optionally fluorinated or perfluorinated. “S” especially represents a group (CH₂)_(n) or (CH₂CH₂)_(n) or (CH₂O), which is linear or branched or cyclic, with n being an integer ranging from 0 to 22. Preferably, “S” is a linear group. Preferably, “S” and “C” are different.

When the crystallizable chains are hydrocarbon-based aliphatic chains, they comprise hydrocarbon-based alkyl chains containing at least 11 carbon atoms and not more than 40 carbon atoms and better still not more than 24 carbon atoms. They are especially aliphatic chains or alkyl chains containing at least 12 carbon atoms, and they are preferably C₁₄-C₂₄, preferably C₁₆-C₂₂ alkyl chains. When they are fluoroalkyl or perfluoroalkyl chains, they contain at least 11 carbon atoms, at least 6 of which carbon atoms are fluorinated.

As examples of semi-crystalline homopolymers or copolymers containing crystallizable chain(s), mention may be made of those resulting from the polymerization of one or more of the following monomers: saturated alkyl (meth)acrylates with the alkyl group being C₁₄-C₂₄, perfluoroalkyl (meth)acrylates with a C₁₁-C₁₅ perfluoroalkyl group, N-alkyl(meth)acryl-amides with the alkyl group being C₁₄ to C₂₄ with or without a fluorine atom, vinyl esters containing alkyl or perfluoro(alkyl) chains with the alkyl group being C₁₄ to C₂₄ (with at least 6 fluorine atoms per perfluoroalkyl chain), vinyl ethers containing alkyl or perfluoro(alkyl) chains with the alkyl group being C₁₄ to C₂₄ and at least 6 fluorine atoms per perfluoroalkyl chain, C₁₄ to C₂₄ alpha-olefins such as, for example, octadecene, para-alkylstyrenes with an alkyl group containing from 12 to 24 carbon atoms, and mixtures thereof.

When the polymers result from a polycondensation, the hydrocarbon-based and/or fluorinated crystallizable chains as defined above are borne by a monomer that may be a diacid, a diol, a diamine or a diisocyanate.

When the polymers that are the subject of the invention are copolymers, they additionally contain from 0 to 50% of groups Y or Z resulting from the copolymerization:

-   α) of Y, which is a polar or non-polar monomer or a mixture of the     two:     -   When Y is a polar monomer, it is either a monomer bearing         polyoxyalkylenated groups (especially oxyethylenated and/or         oxypropylenated groups), a hydroxyalkyl (meth)acrylate, for         instance hydroxyethyl acrylate, (meth)acrylamide, an N-alkyl         (meth)acrylamide, an N,N-dialkyl(meth)acrylamide such as, for         example, N,N-diisopropylacrylamide or N-vinylpyrrolidone (NVP),         N-vinylcaprolactam, a monomer bearing at least one carboxylic         acid group, for instance (meth)acrylic acid, crotonic acid,         itaconic acid, maleic acid or fumaric acid, or bearing a         carboxylic acid anhydride group, for instance maleic anhydride,         and mixtures thereof.     -   When Y is a non-polar monomer, it may be an ester of the linear,         branched or cyclic alkyl (meth)acrylate type, a vinyl ester, an         alkyl vinyl ether, an alpha-olefin, styrene or styrene         substituted with a C₁ to C₁₀ alkyl group, for instance         α-methylstyrene, or a macromonomer of the polyorganosiloxane         type containing vinyl unsaturation.

For the purposes of the invention, the term “alkyl” means a saturated group especially of C₈ to C₂₄, except where otherwise mentioned.

-   β) of Z, which is a polar monomer or a mixture of polar monomers. In     this case, Z has the same definition as the “polar Y” defined above.

Preferably, the semi-crystalline polymers containing a crystallizable side chain are alkyl (meth)acrylate or alkyl(meth)acrylamide homopolymers with an alkyl group as defined above, and especially of C₁₄-C₂₄, copolymers of these monomers with a hydrophilic monomer preferably of different nature from (meth)acrylic acid, for instance N-vinylpyrrolidone or hydroxyethyl (meth)acrylate, and mixtures thereof.

B) Polymers Bearing in the Skeleton at Least One Crystallizable Block

This is also a case of polymers that are soluble or dispersible in the liquid fatty phase by heating above their melting point mp. These polymers are especially block copolymers consisting of at least two blocks of different chemical nature, one of which is crystallizable.

-   -   The polymers defined in patent U.S. Pat. No. 5,156,911 may be         used.     -   Block copolymers of olefin or of cycloolefin containing a         crystallizable chain, for instance those derived from the block         polymerization of:     -   cyclobutene, cyclohexene, cyclooctene, norbornene (i.e.         bicyclo(2.2.1)hept-2-ene), 5-methylnorbornene,         5-ethylnorbornene, 5,6-dimethylnorbornene,         5,5,6-trimethylnorbornene, 5-ethylidenenorbornene,         5-phenylnorbornene, 5-benzylnorbornene, 5-vinylnorbornene,         1,4,5,8-dimethano-1,2,3,4,4a,5,8a-octahydronaphthalene,         dicyclopentadiene, or mixtures thereof,     -   with ethylene, propylene, 1-butene, 3-methyl-1-butene, 1-hexene,         4-methyl-1-pentene, 1-octene, 1-decene or 1-eicosene, or         mixtures thereof,     -   and in particular copoly(ethylene/norbornene) blocks and         (ethylene/propylene/ethylidenenorbornene) block terpolymers.         Those resulting from the block copolymerization of at least 2         C₂-C₁₆, better still C₂-C₁₂, α-olefins such as those mentioned         above and in particular block bipolymers of ethylene and of         1-octene may also be used.     -   The copolymers may be copolymers containing at least one         crystallizable block, the rest of the copolymer being amorphous         (at ambient temperature). These copolymers may also contain two         crystallizable blocks of different chemical nature. The         preferred copolymers are those that simultaneously contain at         ambient temperature a crystallizable block and an amorphous         block that are both hydrophobic and lipophilic, sequentially         distributed; mention may be made, for example, of polymers         containing one of the crystallizable blocks and one of the         amorphous blocks below:     -   Block that is crystallizable by nature: a) polyester, for         instance poly(alkylene terephthalate)s, b) polyolefin, for         instance polyethylenes or polypropylenes.     -   Amorphous and lipophilic block, for instance: amorphous         polyolefins or copoly(olefin)s such as poly(isobutylene),         hydrogenated polybutadiene or hydrogenated poly(isoprene).

As examples of such copolymers containing a crystallizable block and an amorphous block, mention may be made of:

-   α) poly(ε-caprolactone)-b-poly(butadiene) block copolymers,     preferably used hydrogenated, such as those described in the article     D6 “Melting behaviour of poly(ε-caprolactone)-block-polybutadiene     copolymers” from S. Nojima, Macromolecules, 32, 3727-3734 (1999), -   β) the hydrogenated block or multiblock poly(butylene     terephthalate)-b-poly(isoprene) block copolymers cited in the     article D7 “Study of morphological and mechanical properties of     PP/PBT” by B. Boutevin et al., Polymer Bulletin, 34, 117-123 (1995), -   γ) the poly(ethylene)-b-copoly(ethylene/propylene) block copolymers     cited in the articles D8 “Morphology of semi-crystalline block     copolymers of ethylene-(ethylene-alt-propylene)” by P. Rangarajan et     al., Macromolecules, 26, 4640-4645 (1993) and D9 “Polymer aggregates     with crystalline cores: the system     poly(ethylene)-poly(ethylene-propylene)” by P. Richter et al.,     Macromolecules, 30, 1053-1068 (1997), -   δ) the poly(ethylene)-b-poly(ethylethylene) block copolymers cited     in the general article D10 “crystallization in block copolymers”     by I. W. Hamley, Advances in Polymer Science, Vol. 148, 113-137     (1999).

The semi-crystalline polymers in the composition of the invention may or may not be partially crosslinked, provided that the degree of crosslinking does not interfere with their dissolution or dispersion in the liquid fatty phase by heating above their melting temperature. It may then be a chemical crosslinking, by reaction with a polyfunctional monomer during the polymerization. It may also be a physical crosslinking which may, in this case, be due either to the establishment of bonds of hydrogen or dipolar type between groups borne by the polymer, such as, for example, the dipolar interactions between carboxylate ionomers, these interactions being of small amount and borne by the polymer skeleton; or to a phase separation between the crystallizable blocks and the amorphous blocks borne by the polymer.

Preferably, the semi-crystalline polymers in the composition according to the invention are non-crosslinked.

As specific examples of the structuring semi-crystalline polymer that may be used in the composition according to the invention, mention may be made of the products Intelimer® from the company Landec, described in the brochure “Intelimer® polymers”, Landec IP22 (Rev. 4-97). These polymers are in solid form at ambient temperature (25° C.). They bear crystallizable side chains and have the formula X above.

Mixture of High-melting Semi-crystalline Polymer and Low-melting Semi-crystalline Polymer

In the description hereinbelow, the semi-crystalline polymer(s) with a melting temperature mp₂ of less than 50° C. will be referred to as “low-melting polymers” and the crystalline or semi-crystalline compound(s) with a melting temperature mp₁ of greater than or equal to 50° C. will be referred to as “high-melting compounds”. According to the invention, the melting point may be measured especially by any known method and in particular using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC).

The composition advantageously comprises a mixture of a polymer selected from low-melting polymers having a melting temperature of less than 50° C. and of a polymer selected from high-melting polymers having a melting temperature of at least 50° C.

According to the invention, the high-melting semi-crystalline compound(s) are advantageously polymers with a melting temperature mp₁ such that 50° C.≦mp₁≦150° C., better still 55° C.≦mp₁≦150° C., and preferably 60° C.≦mp₁≦130° C., and the low-melting polymers advantageously have a melting temperature mp₂ such that 30° C.≦mp₂≦50° C. and better still 35° C.≦mp₂≦45° C. This melting temperature is a first-order change of state temperature.

In general the low-melting polymers have a melting temperature mp₂ at least equal to the temperature of the keratinous support intended for receiving the composition according to the invention.

As high-melting compounds that may be used in the invention, mention may be made of high-melting waxes, for instance certain polyethylene waxes such as Epolene N-14 sold by Eastman Chemical Cie., carnauba waxes and certain microcrystalline waxes, for instance those sold by Tisco under the brand name “Tisco wax 88”, and also high-melting semi-crystalline polymers. Preferably, the high-melting compound is a second high-melting organic solid semi-crystalline polymer. However, it is possible to use, as high-melting compound, crystalline polymers that are solid at ambient temperature, having a melting temperature of greater than 50° C., random polymers comprising a controlled crystallization, as described in document EP-A-0 951 897, and more particularly the commercial products Engage 8 401 and Engage 8 402 from DuPont de Nemours, with melting temperatures of 51° C. and 64° C. respectively, which are ethylene/1-octene random biopolymers.

-   i) The semi-crystalline polymers with a melting point of less than     50° C. are especially those described in Examples 3, 4, 5, 7 and 9     of patent U.S. Pat. No. 5,156,911, containing a —COOH group,     resulting from the copolymerization of acrylic acid and of a C₅ to     C₁₆ alkyl (meth)acrylate with a melting temperature ranging from     20° C. to 35° C., and more particularly from the copolymerization:     -   of acrylic acid, of hexadecyl acrylate and of isodecyl acrylate         in a 1/16/3 ratio,     -   of acrylic acid and of pentadecyl acrylate in a 1/19 ratio,     -   of acrylic acid, of hexadecyl acrylate and of ethyl acrylate in         a 2.5/76.5/20 ratio,     -   of acrylic acid, of hexadecyl acrylate and of methyl acrylate in         a 5/85/10 ratio,     -   of acrylic acid and of polyoctadecyl methacrylate in a 2.5/97.5         ratio.

It is also possible to use the polymer Structure “O” from National Starch, such as the product described in document U.S. Pat. No. 5,736,125 with a melting temperature of 44° C., and also the semi-crystalline polymers with crystallizable pendent chains comprising fluoro groups, as described in Examples 1, 4, 6, 7 and 8 of document WO-A-01/19333.

It is also possible to use the low-melting semi-crystalline polymers obtained by copolymerization of stearyl acrylate and of acrylic acid or of NVP, as described in document U.S. Pat. No. 5,519,063 or EP-A-550 745 and more especially those described in Examples 1 and 2 below, of polymer preparation.

-   ii) The semi-crystalline polymers with a melting point of greater     than or equal to 50° C. are especially the Intelimer described in     the brochure “Intelimer® polymers”, Landec IP22 (Rev. 4-97) with a     melting temperature of 56° C., which is an impermeable, non-sticky     product that is viscous at ambient temperature.

It is also possible to use semi-crystalline polymers obtained by copolymerization of behenyl acrylate and of acrylic acid or of NVP, as described in documents U.S. Pat. No. 5,519,063 and EP-A-0 550 745, and more especially those described in Examples 3 and 4 below, of polymer preparation.

Preferably, the low-melting semi-crystalline polymers and/or those with a high melting point do not comprise a carboxylic group.

According to the invention and advantageously, the high-melting compound (crystalline or semi-crystalline) and the low-melting compound are in a weight ratio ranging from 10/90 to 90/10, better still from 40/60 to 60/40 and more preferably in a weight ratio of close to 50/50.

Advantageously, the weight ratio of semi-crystalline polymer having an organic structure relative to the liquid fatty phase is from 0.20 to 0.60 and better still from 0.25 to 0.50, so as to obtain a hard stick that breaks down on contact with the skin or the lips, in particular having a hardness ranging from 100 to 350 gf.

The gelation of the fatty phase may be adjusted depending on the nature of the polymer(s) and their respective concentrations, and may be such that a rigid structure in the form of a tube or a stick is obtained.

The content of each polymer is chosen according to the desired hardness of the composition and as a function of the particular application intended. The respective amounts of polymer may be such that they allow the production of a solid that can be broken down, in particular having a hardness ranging from 100 to 350 gf. This hardness may be measured by the “cheesewire” method, which consists in cutting a tube of lipstick 12.7 mm in diameter and in measuring the hardness at 20° C., using a DFGHS 2 tensile testing machine from the company Indelco-Chatillon, travelling at a speed of 100 mm/minute. It is expressed as the shear force (expressed as gram-force) required to cut a stick under these conditions.

This hardness is such that the composition is self-supporting and can be broken down easily to form a satisfactory deposit on the skin and the lips. In addition, with this hardness, the composition of the invention in cast form, especially in the form of a stick, shows good impact strength.

The composition of the invention is preferably in the form of a solid stick with a hardness ranging from 100 gf to 350 gf, measured according to the “cheesewire” method. However, it is possible to use an amount of semi-crystalline polymer such that the composition is in the form of a soft paste that can be applied by finger or by using an applicator to keratin materials.

In practice, the total amount of semi-crystalline polymer(s) represents from 0.1% to 80%, better still from 0.5% to 40% and even better still from 3% to 30% of the total weight of the composition. It preferably represents from 15% to 25% by weight of the composition.

The tubes or sticks according to the invention produce, after application, a glossy, non-sticky coating of uniform colour that gives good coverage (i.e. the skin or the lips do not show through the makeup).

Volatile Oil

By “volatile oil” is meant any non-aqueous medium that is liable to evaporate on contact with the skin in less than one hour, at ambient temperature (25° C.) and atmospheric pressure (760 mmHg).

The volatile cosmetic oil or oils which are liquid at ambient temperature have in particular a vapour pressure, measured at ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure, ranging from 10⁻³ to 300 mmHg (0.266 Pa to 40,000 Pa), preferably from 0.02 mmHg to 300 mmHg (2.66 Pa to 40,000 Pa) and more preferably ranging from 0.1 to 90 mmHg (13 Pa to 12,000 Pa).

According to the invention these volatile oils facilitate in particular the application of the composition to the skin, lips or epidermal derivatives. These oils may be hydrocarbon-based oils, silicone oils optionally containing alkyl or alkoxy groups, pendent or at the end of the silicone chain, or a mixture of these oils.

Preferably, the volatile oils are cosmetic oils selected from oils having no flash point, oils having a flash point ranging from 40° C. to 100° C., and mixtures thereof, for the purpose of making it easier to employ them. Moreover, they advantageously have a boiling temperature at atmospheric pressure of less than 220° C. and more preferably less than 210° C., in particular ranging from 110 to 210° C. Preferably, these volatile oils are not monoalcohols containing at least 7 carbon atoms.

As volatile oils which can be used in the invention mention may be made of linear or cyclic silicone oils having a viscosity at ambient temperature of less than 8 cSt and having in particular from 2 to 7 silicon atoms, these silicones optionally containing alkyl or alkoxy groups having from 1 to 10 carbon atoms.

The liquid fatty phase represents, in practice, from 5% to 99% and preferably from 20% to 80% of the total weight of the composition. It advantageously represents at least 60% of the total weight of the composition.

Colorant

The composition advantageously comprises a colorant, which may be selected from the lipophilic dyes, hydrophilic dyes, pigments and nacres usually used in cosmetic or dermatological compositions, and mixtures thereof. This colorant is generally present in a proportion of from 0.01% to 50% (solids), and preferably from 5% to 30%, of the total weight of the composition (if present).

The fat-soluble dyes are, for example, Sudan Red, D&C Red 17, D&C Green 6, β-carotene, soybean oil, Sudan Brown, D&C Yellow 11, D&C Violet 2, D&C Orange 5, quinoline yellow and annatto. They can represent from 0% to 20% of the weight of the composition and better still from 0.01% to 6% (if present). The water-soluble dyes are, for example, beetroot juice or methylene blue, and can represent up to 6% of the total weight of the composition.

The pigments may be white or coloured, mineral and/or organic, and coated or uncoated. Among the mineral pigments which may be mentioned are titanium dioxide or zinc dioxide, optionally surface-treated, zirconium oxide or cerium oxide, as well as iron oxides, chromium oxide, manganese violet, ultramarine blue, chromium hydrate and ferric blue.

They can represent from 0% to 25% (0.05% to 25%) and better still from 0.1% to 15% of the total weight of the composition (if present).

Advantageously, the pigments and nacres are introduced into the composition in the form of a pigment paste.

For the purposes of the invention, the term “pigment paste” means a concentrated colloidal dispersion of coated or uncoated coloured particles in a continuous medium, optionally stabilized using a dispersant.

As will be appreciated, the person skilled in the art will take care to select the optional additional additives and/or the amount thereof such that the advantageous properties of the composition according to the invention are not, or are not substantially, adversely affected by the envisaged addition.

The makeup composition of the invention may be in the form of a coloured product, in particular for the skin, optionally having care or treatment properties, and may be in particular a foundation, a blusher, a rouge, an eyeshadow, a concealer product, an eyeliner or a body makeup product; a lip makeup product, for instance a lipstick, a lipgloss or a lip pencil, optionally with care or treatment properties; a makeup product for the epidermal derivatives, for instance the nails, for the eyelashes in the form of a mascara, or for the eyebrows and the hair. It is preferably anhydrous or in cast form.

As will be appreciated, the composition of the invention must be cosmetically acceptable, i.e. it must contain a physiologically acceptable non-toxic medium and must be able to be applied to human skin, epidermal derivatives or lips of the face. For the purposes of the invention, the expression “cosmetically acceptable” means a composition of pleasant appearance, odour, feel and, where appropriate, taste.

At least one wax such as those used hithero in cosmetics may also be used in the composition of the invention.

For the purposes of the present invention, a wax is a lipophilic fatty compound that is solid at ambient temperature (25° C.) and atmospheric pressure (760 mmHg), which undergoes a reversible solid/liquid change of state, having a melting temperature of greater than 40° C. and better still greater than 50° C., which may range up to 200° C., and having an anisotropic crystalline organization in the solid state. The size of the crystals is such that the crystals diffract and/or scatter light, giving the composition a cloudy, more or less opaque appearance. By bringing the wax to its melting temperature, it is possible to make it miscible with oils and to form a microscopically homogeneous mixture, but, on returning the temperature of the mixture to ambient temperature, recrystallization of the wax in the oils of the mixture is obtained. This recrystallization in the mixture may be responsible for the reduction in the gloss of the said mixture. Thus the composition advantageously contains little or no standard waxes, and especially less than 10% by weight and better still less than 5% of standard wax relative to the total weight of the composition.

For the purposes of the patent application, the standard waxes are those generally used in cosmetology and dermatology; they are especially of natural origin, for instance beeswax, candelilla wax, ouricury wax, Japan wax, cork fibre wax, sugarcane wax, paraffin wax, lignite wax, microcrystalline waxes with a melting point >50° C., lanolin wax, montan wax, ozokerites and hydrogenated oils such as hydrogenated jojoba oil, but also waxes of synthetic origin, for instance polyethylene waxes derived from the polymerization of ethylene, waxes obtained by Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, with a melting point >50° C., fatty acid esters and glycerides that are solid at 50° C., and silicone waxes, for instance alkyl- and alkoxy-poly(di)methylsiloxanes and/or poly(di)methylsiloxane esters that are solid at 50° C.

Advantageously, the composition of the invention contains little or no “matting” fillers and in particular less than 5% of matting filler. This is especially the case when it is desired to obtain a glossy coating on keratin materials such as the lips, the eyelashes and the hair. In contrast, fillers of this type may be used for a foundation. A matting filler is generally a filler that absorbs the skin's sweat and/or sebum, for instance silicas, talcs, clays, kaolins and polyamide powders (Nylon®).

The composition according to the invention may be manufactured by the known processes generally used in cosmetology.

The invention further provides a cosmetic process for caring for, making up or treating human keratin materials and especially human skin, facial lips and epidermal derivatives, comprising the application of the composition, especially the cosmetic composition as defined above, to the keratin materials.

The invention further provides for the use of a volatile oil in a makeup composition comprising a) at least one liquid fatty phase structured with at least one semi-crystalline polymer having an organic structure, the melting temperature of which is greater than or equal to 30° C., and b) a colorant, the liquid fatty phase, the colorant, the volatile oil and the polymer forming a physiologically acceptable medium.

The invention further provides for the use of a sufficient amount of a volatile oil in a cosmetic composition containing a physiologically acceptable medium comprising a) at least one liquid fatty phase structured with at least one semi-crystalline polymer having an organic structure, the melting temperature of which is greater than or equal to 30° C., and b) a colorant, as an agent for non-transfer of the said composition, the said composition laying down a comfortable, glossy film on keratin materials, and especially the lips.

The invention further provides for the use of a volatile oil in a makeup composition containing a physiologically acceptable medium comprising at least one liquid fatty phase structured with at least one semi-crystalline polymer having an organic structure to obtain a non-transfer cosmetic composition.
